Hi-- I'm trying to set up the vsftpd daemon. If I only allow anonymous logins, I get the following error message: 500 OOPS: vsftpd: refusing to run with writable anonymous root If I allow local logins, this is what I get: 500 OOPS: cannot open chroot() user list file Can someone tell me how to get around either of these problems? Thanks, John

The ftp directory that the daemon is trying to chroot to is owned by ftp user (or whatever user the daemon is running as). chown the ftp tree to root.root.

You have explicitly list what users are allowed to login in /etc/vsftpd.chroot_list. -- -ckm
